Finding local gems is something truly special and this local
café is one of the best around. It’s my go to whenever I’m in need of a big
feed with friendly service.
This place serves delicious brunch classics such as eggs
benedict, sautéed mushrooms, baked eggs and French toast. But a bonus point
about this place is that it has a specials board that changes all the time.
Some of the best dishes I’ve had was from the specials board such as the
breakfast burger 2.0 (filled with haloumi, scrambled eggs, feta and a pesto and
aioli sauce). It was monstrous and delicious.

No matter how hungry I am whenever I go to Short Black, I
always leave with a satisfied and way too full belly. The serving sizes are
plentiful and packed with plenty of flavour. Their herbed scrambled eggs have
at least 3 eggs in them served with bacon, haloumi and a roasted tomato. Served
with toasted sourdough, it’s the perfect start to the day.

Another delicious item is their greek baked eggs. It contains
roast lamb, roast potato, Spanish onions, capsicum and feta and comes with a
side of pita bread for dipping. Outstanding and very filling.
Not only do they have a great breakfast selection but their
lunch menu items are just as delicious and just as big.

A go to item for when I’ve had slightly too many the night
before is their club sandwich. Such a simple sandwich made of grilled chicken,
bacon, lettuce, tomato and a generous dollop of aioli. The sandwich is cut into
quarters and paired with a pile of shoestring fries. Simple yet perfect.

The great thing about this place is that there’s hardly ever
a long queue. Most I’ve had to wait was possibly 10 minutes, which is nothing
compared to other mediocre cafes with wait time of up to an hour.
Short Black is definitely value for money and their coffees
are great too! If you ever find yourself in the area and in need of a huge feed
or even just an afternoon tea, Short Black’s got you covered.
